RE: What Did You Buy? - CRAZY-HORSE - 10-02-2018

my last Christmas gift card purchases:

and two secondhand vinyls:

the first vinyl is Kingfish - "kingfish", featuring Bob Weir on vocals from the mid 1970s,
the second is Klaatu -"hope",ive heard of these guys but am not aware of their music.
so, two albums of unknowns, hoping the surprises will be pleasant ones!
RE: What Did You Buy? - Music Head - 15-02-2018
^^
pretty sure the second one will be
RE: What Did You Buy? - Ruby - 21-02-2018
^I'm very fond of that Klaatu album, but I expect that's because it was an early introduction to the fascinating world of concept albums and progressive rock. There was a whole conspiracy around them at one stage - that they were the Beatles performing under another name. The mystery originated because there were no credits iro the artists. They were good, I thought. I have mentioned this before so forgive the repetition, but the song "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" was actually theirs - it's on their debut album 3:47 EST. The Carpenters covered it and made it a hit. Nice find - that album is not easily come by on vinyl.
For myself - I too have found one that's not that readily available; Rod Argent's Moving Home. Bargain price too!
